Imagine that youre journeying inside an exhibition of paintings, and every now and then you can "jump" into one of the paintings and see what is behind the brush strokes. Well you can! The jeep trip is in fact going into what is beyond, like discovering an additional dimension and seeing what is behind the brush strokes - beyond the turn. Colors, canyons, ancient fortresses, wild animals, breath-taking views and trips across the land with a challenge, but they are just a small part of what you can get from a trip inside the picture.
